I bought a used Kessil a80 tuna blue for my desktop tank. At its whitest setting it is not quite as white as I would like it to be. For those with experience, how white should it be able to be set? Is it just the way it is, or perhaps have some of the “whiter” LEDs?

Pics and video (if they work) to help…

Its more like 8000 but can get fairly white and overrun blue while offering shimmer
 
I couldn’t get the videos to work. Videos show a truer color.

You can go as white as you want to just have to be careful if you are keeping corals
